I'll say the obvious...fold the turn, it appears your TPTK is no good given the action.

Re: annoying hand
 

ditto on the turn fold. if you just cannot bear to fold, try playing 5/10 a while until you get that confidence to make an easy fold.

Re: annoying hand
 

fold turn after reraise, correct?

Re: annoying hand
 

yes

I just call turn here HU, why let him off his 5 outter, risk getting 3 bet by a worse hand, or a hand you have outs against?

Re: annoying hand
 

I dont think people fold pairs in that spot

the problem with folding the turn is he could be against 2 pair, in which case folding would be a disaster getting those odds. i call and fold the river unimproved - unimproved meaning no ace and the boarding not pairing.

easy fold still. you are screwed in this hand, just give up. since you cannot accurately read your opponent, ever being able to put them on two pair makes that possibility only cost you a lot of money.

"easy fold still. you are screwed in this hand, just give up."

i mean, at least rebut with an argument.
